Matrix Space: #lemmy-space

Linking communities in Lemmy across the Federation seems to be very straightforward: I can make [email protected] for example, and everyone across the fediverse will be able to meet me at that community.

However, lets say I have a particular post I made. There are multiple links I can post, but they all feel wrong:

  • My Lemmy.world link: https://lemmy.world/post/168410 . This is how I see it, but I assume people at lemmy.ml and programming.dev won't be able to post to it or use it.

  • The programming.dev link: https://programming.dev/post/50678 . Perhaps this link is more legitimate, but now I can't use it, and users from lemmy.ml won't be able to use it either.


So... how do we share posts (or discuss) about Lemmy-posts across the Lemmy fediverse?

So I thought that you should be able to take https://programming.dev/post/50678, paste it into the search box for lemmy.world, and get the local version of that post. But that doesn't work for your particular post

However, another programming.dev post does work

I don't know what the difference is.
